An interacting adiabatic quantum motor

Anton Bruch, Silvia Viola Kusminskiy, Gil Refael +1

We present a field theoretic treatment of an adiabatic quantum motor. We explicitly discuss a motor termed Thouless motor which is based on a Thouless pump operating in reverse. Wh…

Learning phase transitions from dynamics

Evert van Nieuwenburg, Eyal Bairey, Gil Refael

We propose the use of recurrent neural networks for classifying phases of matter based on the dynamics of experimentally accessible observables. We demonstrate this approach by tra…

Steady states and edge state transport in topological Floquet-Bloch systems

Iliya Esin, Mark S. Rudner, Gil Refael +1

We study the open system dynamics and steady states of two dimensional Floquet topological insulators: systems in which a topological Floquet-Bloch spectrum is induced by an extern…

Absence of Thermalization in Finite Isolated Interacting Floquet Systems

Karthik I. Seetharam, Paraj Titum, Michael Kolodrubetz +1

Conventional wisdom suggests that the long time behavior of isolated interacting periodically driven (Floquet) systems is a featureless maximal entropy state characterized by an in…

Setting Boundaries with Memory: Generation of Topological Boundary States in Floquet-Induced Synthetic Crystals

Yuval Baum, Gil Refael

When a d-dimensional quantum system is subjected to a periodic drive, it may be treated as a (d+1)-dimensional system, where the extra dimension is a synthetic one. In this work, w…

MBL-mobile: Quantum engine based on many-body localization

Nicole Yunger Halpern, Christopher David White, Sarang Gopalakrishnan +1

Many-body-localized (MBL) systems do not thermalize under their intrinsic dynamics. The athermality of MBL, we propose, can be harnessed for thermodynamic tasks. We illustrate this…
